PH has been disproven to work sassy, over here people are mostly going with the low everything sway for girls through diet and limited supps, plus one attempt Luckily youve not attempted yet so have a read about and see whats working for people, I'll try and post some links

Hi and welcome to our site, Sassy.
What most of us are doing is either giving up on pH idea all together (so many of us got pH opposites that we have pretty much moved on without it and our success rates went UP when we did) OR use RepHresh every 3 days starting when AF ends, last dose 8, 12, or 24 hours before attempt, and then use Sylk or Acijel with attempt. No one is doing lime tampons as the odds of conception were terribly low with them and they're just a big crazy hassle that wasn't working anyway.
Cutoff is fine if you believe in it, again, so many of us have oodles of SHettles opposites so we have all but given it up. Just be sure you stick with only one attempt, as having one attempt has been a strong pink swayer for us (and is probably the sole reason why anyone ever really thought Shettles or O+12 even worked.)
DO NOT do O+12. It doesn't work and cuts odds of conception to nothing, regardless of what they tell you on other sites. http://genderdreaming.com/forum/tryi...9-no-12-a.html

Hi atomic,
thank you sooooo much for your response, your way seem a lot less stressful lol I just have a couple of questions if you don't mind, I havent been following the diet strictly as I hadn't heard of it before but I tend to skip breakfast any way and mainly drink raspberry tea, cranberry juice, milkshakes and diet coke, I don't tend to eat a lot of red meat, my diet usually consists of chicken, rice, pasta, salad bread, cheese, yoghurt and chocolate lol going by this do you still think I have a good chance? you say one attempt is that just one attempt between af and ovulation and if so when is the best time to do this attempt and should dh abstain for 7 days. also with the rephresh I will do it every 3 days and as we would be dtd in an evening should my last dose be that morning and then use acijel when dtd. Apologise for all the questions but im still a little bit unsure after reading all the info, probably because I am ttc this month
thank you again

Well, you are eating the kinds of foods that are recommended by some of the sway diets. Personally I think it's more about the overall nutrient intake of your diet and not about the individual foods you are eating, but if you're ok with it people have had success with that style of diet.
One attempt in your fertile window, so some point between O-3 and O Day, have one attempt and that's all. Most of us have it on the day of positive OPK.
RepHresh, use your last dose either 8, 12, or 24 hours before. Closer may be pinker but lower odds conception. Most start out using Acijel 1-2 hours before BD or else as a lube for intercourse in addition to the Reph>

2 hours before, use Benadryl.
Women shouldn't use Sudafed but you can give to your husband as long as he's under 40

Hi sassy.
I've been reading everything on this brilliant site for over a year and I now plan to put what I've learnt into action.
We will have one attempt on positive ov. I am thinking of taking a antihistamine an hour or so before we dtd. I've been following the LE diet loosely for about 4 months and I've had some success with weight loss.
I've decided against replens, lime tampons etc. so for me it's mainly the one attempt, LE diet and antihistamine.
I already have to gorgeous boys. Ds1 was conceived with multiple attempts and ds2 was 2attemps at ov. Didn't know anything about gender swaying then but I've always tracked my cycle.
Good luck to you x
